Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony by Eoin ColferAnother really great book in this series. I love the character arc that Artemis has had throughout the books. He has gone from a ruthless, criminal mastermind to a trustworthy ally of the People. In this installment, Artemis is on the hunt of some time skipping demons that need help. Working with Section 8 of the LEPrecon, Artemis, Holly, Foaly and Mulch are reunited to save the demons. One surprise- another young human genius is trying to get a hold of the demon, and it just so happens to be a very attractive young lady.

Feast of Fools by Rachel CaineClaire is finally acting a bit more grown up. She is finally using her intelligence, or rather it is being used for the greater good of the vampires. I actually really like this part of the story. Claire graduating from high school early and being sent to a JC instead of Harvard never really made sense to me. So, her smarts being used to help the vamps made up for it. I enjoyed the story, the characters and the pace of Feast of Fools. One little thing I didn't understand... why the need to move Claire's parents to Morganville? Seemed an unneeded addition to the plot. Perhaps it will make more sense in the next book.

I haven't read any of the Artemis Fowl books and I did wonder if they were any good. Do you happen to remember the name of the first one?
ReplyDeleteI think the first one's simple Artemis Fowl. I've read the first one, and I quite enjoyed it, but I haven't read further in the series yet — I need to do that.
ReplyDeleteYup, Artemis Fowl is what the first one is called. I think another is coming out in the series this spring. One more book for me to read to get caught up before then. :)
